What do the biggest comebacks in sports, Hollywood, and everyday life have in common? They remind us that WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW DOESN’T HAVE TO BE WHERE YOUR STORY ENDS. 💥

What does it mean to get back up when you’ve fallen, failed, messed up, or lost your way? And what is the greatest comeback you can ever have?

 this episode of BE THE 25, we talk about what it means to get back up when you’ve fallen, failed, messed up, or lost your way. 🙌

We’ll look at some incredible comeback examples—from the New England Patriots’ historic Super Bowl comeback🏈 to Robert Downey Jr.’s career comeback 🎬—and then discover something even greater:

❤️ THE GREATEST COMEBACK YOU CAN EVER HAVE IS COMING BACK TO JESUS.

Maybe you’ve drifted away from God.
Maybe you’ve stopped praying or reading your Bible.
Maybe you’ve questioned your faith.
Maybe you’ve made choices you regret.
Maybe you feel like you’ve failed God or gone too far.

YOU CAN COME BACK. 🙏

We also talk about the Prodigal Son, Ken’s powerful journey to faith, and Evel Knievel’s dramatic come-to-Jesus moment. Each one reminds us that God can meet us right where we are. ❤️

And if you’ve never truly come to Jesus, maybe today can be your COME-TO MOMENT.

You don’t have to get your life together first. You can come to Him as you are, recognize your need for a Savior, turn from your sin, put your faith in Jesus, and choose to follow Him. ✝️

✨ WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW DOESN’T HAVE TO BE WHERE YOUR STORY ENDS.

So whether today is your COMEBACK or your COME-TO opportunity, SEIZE THIS MOMENT.

COME ON BACK…
AND COME TO… JESUS. ❤️

Have you ever started something and felt like quitting? 😩 Want to know how to keep moving forward when life feels overwhelming, motivation disappears, and quitting seems easier? Maybe you're trying to get through a difficult class📚, finish a degree🎓, stay committed to a sport 🏃, fulfill job responsibilities 💼,  read your Bible consistently 📖, or follow through on something else God has called you to do 🙏. Learn about three things every follower of Jesus needs if they're going to finish the assignment God has given them:

✅ Focus
✅ Follow-Through
✅ Faithfulness

💡 Key Takeaways
🎯 Focus on the next step—not the whole journey.
When the road ahead feels overwhelming, stop carrying the entire assignment in your mind. Focus on the next step God has placed in front of you.
🏃 Follow through when you don't feel like it.
Success isn't about feeling motivated every day. It's about doing what you know you should do, even when motivation is gone.
🙏 Faithfulness matters more than recognition.
God doesn't measure success the way the world does. He calls us to be faithful with whatever assignment He has entrusted to us.

📖 Scriptures Mentioned
📖 Matthew 6:34
"Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
📖 James 4:17
"If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them."
📖 Philippians 4:13
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
📖 Galatians 6:9
"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
📖 Matthew 25:21
"Well done, good and faithful servant."

🎯 Challenge
What assignment has God placed in front of you right now?
• School?
• Sports?
• Work?
• Ministry?
• Something else?

You CAN  finish what God has put before you. So finish well!

Have you ever opened a Bible app or walked into a bookstore and wondered...

🤔 Why are there SO MANY Bible translations?
🤔 What's the difference between the NIV, ESV, KJV, NLT, CSB, and The Message?
🤔 And which one is right for me?

You're not alone.

In this episode of Be The 25, we're answering one of the most common questions Christians ask—and by the end of this episode, you'll understand why there are so many Bible translations and how to confidently choose one that's right for you.

✨ The 6 Reasons We Have Different Bible Translations
🌍 Different Languages – So people around the world can read God's Word in their own language.
🗣️ Different Changes in Language Over Time – Language changes, so translations are updated to keep God's message clear.
📜 Different Discoveries – Ongoing study of ancient manuscripts and history helps improve clarity and accuracy.
✍️ Different Translation Styles – Word-for-word, thought-for-thought, and paraphrase each communicate Scripture in different ways.
👥 Different Readers – Some translations are easier for children, teens, new believers, or advanced Bible students.
🎯 Different Purposes – Study Bibles, devotional Bibles, one-year Bibles, application Bibles, chronological Bibles, and more are designed for different needs.

📚 3 Ways to Choose the Right Bible
✅ Choose a translation you can understand.
✅ Choose a Bible that matches your purpose.
✅ Choose a Bible you will actually read.

💙 Remember: The best Bible isn't the one sitting on your shelf—it's the one that helps you know God, understand His Word, and live it out.

📖 Key Verse
Nehemiah 8:8 (NIV)
"They read from the Book of the Law of God, making it clear and giving the meaning so that the people understood what was being read."

Is the Bible missing books? Why haven't new books been added to Scripture? And why don't Christians accept other sacred writings as revelation from God?

🔍 YOU’LL DISCOVER

✨ Why Christians believe God’s revelation was completed in Jesus Christ
📜 What the Bible says about adding to or subtracting from God’s Word
⛪ How the early church recognized which books belonged in the New Testament
📚 Why writings like the Gospel of Thomas were excluded
⚖️ What the Apocrypha is—and why Protestants and Catholics differ on it
🧭 How Christians evaluate claims of “new revelation”
❗ Why contradictory truth claims cannot all be true at the same time
🔥 How miracles confirmed God’s message throughout 

💡 KEY TAKEAWAYS

✝️ Jesus is God’s final and complete revelation to humanity.
Christians believe God has fully revealed Himself through Christ—so no later message would override or “upgrade” that revelation.

📖 The Bible warns against altering God’s Word.
Passages like Revelation 22:18–19 emphasize not adding to or taking away from Scripture.

⛪ The early church recognized Scripture—it didn’t randomly assign it.
Books were identified based on apostolic authority, consistency with Jesus’ teaching, and widespread use in early worship.

📚 Not all ancient writings were considered inspired.
Texts like the Gospel of Thomas were written later and didn’t match the apostolic witness of the New Testament.

📜 The Apocrypha sits in a debated category.
Catholic and Protestant traditions differ on whether these writings are fully canonical.

🧭 New revelation must be tested.
Any claim of God’s Word is measured against the teachings of Jesus and the apostles.

⚖️ Truth can’t contradict itself.
If two religious claims directly oppose each other, they cannot both be fully true.

✨ God consistently confirmed His message.
Throughout Scripture, miracles, prophecy, and fulfilled promises validated His messengers and Jesus.

📖 SCRIPTURES MENTIONED

Hebrews 1:1-2, Jude 1:3, Revelation 22:18-19, Deuteronomy 4:1-2, Deuteronomy 12:32, Proverbs 30:5-6, Jeremiah 26:1-2, 2 Peter 1:20-21, Galatians 1:8, 2 Corinthians 11:14, 1 John 4:1, 2 Peter 2:1, Exodus 4:5, 1 Kings 18, John 3:2, Matthew 11:4-5,  Acts 2:22 & 2 Corinthians 12:12

🔬📖 Are science and the Bible compatible? A lot of people don’t think so. But is that really true? And many believe you have to choose between science and the Bible. But do you? We break down WHAT MOST PEOPLE GET WRONG about science vs. the Bible—and why the two don’t need to be seen as enemies.

🔎 5 Things People Get Wrong About Science and the Bible
❌ Thinking science is the only way to know what’s true – NOT TRUE.
❌ Thinking science is always final — it actually grows and changes with new discoveries 🔄
❌ Thinking science and the Bible are competing explanations – THEY’RE NOT ⚖️
❌ Thinking science and the Bible can’t line up – THEY CAN (when it’s “good science”) 🔍
❌ Thinking you have to choose between science and faith – YOU DON’T 🙌

🧠✨ Many respected scientists—including Francis Collins, John Lennox, and Jennifer Wiseman—have openly shared how their scientific work and Christian faith fit together.

📖 Scriptures Mentioned

🌌 Psalm 19:1
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."

🔍 Romans 1:20
"For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse."

🌊 Psalm 8:8
"The birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas."

📜 2 Timothy 3:16
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness."

✅ Psalm 119:160
"The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever."

✨ Key takeaway:
You don’t have to choose between loving science 🧬 and trusting the Bible 📖. When both are understood correctly, they help us see the world—and our Creator—more clearly 🌍✨

Whether you’re dealing with a big move, friendship shift, new school year, or a life change you didn’t see coming, learn how to handle life’s transitions so you can step confidently into whatever season you’re facing. You’ll walk away with 3 practical, faith-filled ways to navigate change:

🌱 3 Ways to Navigate Change with Faith

1️⃣ Remember - Change is a Part of Life
Seasons shift — and that doesn’t mean life is falling apart. Often, it means life is moving forward.

2️⃣ Accept the Change
Accepting change doesn’t mean you like it right away — it means trusting God’s plan even when it looks different than yours. When you embrace change instead of resisting it, God can transform hard seasons into growth and purpose.

3️⃣ Remember God Is With You During Change
You are never alone in transitions. God walks with you through the unknown, the messy, and the unexpected — giving you strength, courage, and direction.

📖 Scriptures Mentioned

• Ecclesiastes 3:1–8 — A time for everything
• Isaiah 43:18–19 — God is doing something new
• Isaiah 41:10 — Do not fear, for I am with you
• Genesis 39:2 — The Lord was with Joseph when he was in a foreign land
• Genesis 39:21 — The Lord was with Joseph in prison
• Genesis 41:41–44 — Joseph promoted in Egypt
• Romans 8:28 — God works all things for good

🌟 Key Reminder

Even if the change you’re facing feels painful or uncertain right now — God is still working. He can bring purpose, growth, and good out of seasons you never would have chosen.

When life shifts, you can stand strong, grow in faith, and follow Jesus in every moment — even during seasons of change. 💛

Your faith in Jesus is a result of a chain reaction. SOMEONE told SOMEONE… who told SOMEONE… and eventually, the story of Jesus reached YOU. ✨ Discover 3 powerful truths about this chain reaction that reveal how your story is part of something so much bigger -  than you could ever imagine!

1. The Chain Reaction Is RELATIONAL 🤝
Most people don’t come to Jesus randomly — they come because someone cared enough to speak, pray, invite, and walk with them.
📖 Scripture: Acts 8:27–39
Philip obeyed God, spoke to the Ethiopian official, explained Scripture, and that one conversation helped carry the gospel toward Africa.
Key takeaway: God uses His people to reach people.

2. The Chain Reaction Is GENERATIONAL 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Faith doesn’t just impact one life — it can shape families and generations.
📖 Scriptures:
• 2 Timothy 1:5 — Timothy’s faith lived first in his grandmother Lois and mother Eunice.
• 2 Timothy 3:14–15 — He knew Scripture from childhood.
• Psalm 145:4 — “Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts.”
Key takeaway: Your influence counts. Investment in others counts. 💬

3. The Chain Reaction Is MISSIONAL 🌍
Faith is never meant to be stored — it’s meant to be shared.
📖 Scriptures:
• Mark 16:15 — “Go into all the world and preach the good news.”
• 2 Corinthians 5:20 — We are Christ’s ambassadors.
Key takeaway: You're not just the result of the chain reaction. You’re now responsible for continuing it. 🔥

🌟 A Powerful Reminder

Send In Your Question for the Podcast

Have you ever wondered what actually happened to the original 12 disciples after Jesus rose from the dead? 🤔Did they stay faithful when following Jesus became dangerous? And if they did… what did it cost them? 

📖 Episode Highlights

✨ The disciples weren’t superheroes — they were ordinary people
✨ They went from hiding in fear to preaching in public
✨ Most were hunted down, tortured, and killed for their faith
✨ John was the only disciple to die of old age — after persecution and exile
✨ Following Jesus was never about comfort — it was about obedience

🧭 Big Takeaway

Following Jesus isn’t about being comfortable or convenient.
It’s about:

• CONVICTION — believing Jesus is worth following, no matter the cost
• COMMITMENT — continuing to live for Him even when it’s hard
• COURAGE — speaking up, standing firm, and sharing Jesus when it’s risky

The disciples didn’t just believe in Jesus — they followed Him, facing real consequences. Their stories show us what true faith looks like today.

💬 Reflection Question

👉 Are you willing to follow Jesus — no matter the cost?
